59'000 miles on a Honda Ruckus

Big Four Mtn, so named for a "4" seen by an early miner on it's northern face, stands majestically 6135' , stretching over 4000' above my head. I hike through the avalanche destruction to the ice caves, remnants of last season's snowfield as the streams and summer melt into beautiful channels. Booming cracks emit from the darkness beyond, a reminder to only venture so near.
